When brain farts have this much follow through, you’re in for a hell of a mess.
What comes to mind when you think about the Polynesian island paradise of Tahiti? Golden sands, amazing weather, and now you can add the lost art of the wonder own goal to that list.
Tahitian goalkeeper Mickael Roche is set to become the latest obscure footballer-turned-cewebrity, but for all the wrong reasons. The 33-year-old shot-stopper will be held up as a shining example of why goalkeepers, no matter what level they’re playing at, should never have a lapse in concentration… not even for a split second.
That’s exactly what happened to poor Roche who, in an inexplicable moment of madness during a recent match, pulled off one of the greatest own goals in the history of the beautiful game. Check it out below.
As amazing an own goal as this is, we’re afraid it’s not the best ever. That accolade belongs to Sun Hei’s impressive scorpion kick effort in the Hong Kong first division.
